HAY MAKING.

1t is pleasing to us know itat
every yeal more and more alien'
ton is being given TO hay making
in this portion OF the State. Mr..
Allen Carpenter and Mr.. Merlariy
may be said 10 be the pioneers in
this branch OF farming and both
these gentlemen have for NUN
ber OF years found their hay crops
to be profitable.
The whole Of the hay used IN
this or any other section Of the
South should be OF home produc.
ton. There is no other part of
the United States in which there
is so great a variety OF indigenous
grasses as in the South, and It's
cultivation and preparation for
market is 20, easy in comparison
with that of the verlasling cotton
crop. that it is really a matter OF
wonder that large quantities Of
the now useless lands Ia this VII
cInlty have not long ago been
utilized for the production oil hay.
"A few acres of cornfield, il
plowed up and ferIillzed, will in
the spring, without seeding, put
up luxuriant crop of crab grass
which makes as fine hay as any
grass in the world, and the farmer
off these few acres with his NOW
er and hay press would realize far
more than he would from the
same number of acres in cotton.
Either crab grass or Bermuda will
furnish a perennial grass crop that
will require no seeding, aud only
single breaking up in the fall or
very early in the spring.
Besides these there are many
other grasses, such as Lespedeza,
Johnson grass, the various milels
and others that would repay rich
ly the very slight cultivation they
may require. Indeed hay might
be made profltably without any
cultivation. Nothing but the
mower and the hay press, and the
few hands required to manage
them, would be necessary on most
Of the plantations in this county
to insure to the careful planter u
competency from the hay which
grows spontaneously on every
farm,
A correspondent OF that excel
lent paper, The "SouIhern LIv,
Stock Jnnrnal," suggests a con.
vention Of the hay makers. and

State in May next, either at he
